I'm really bummed for ya though. That sucks big time. I'd like more details on what happened, but you won't really know until you get the engine out and apart... if you're planning on even going to the trouble.

id like to go through the trouble lol. from what i told my mechanic he said it sounds like the oil pump went out and went out really fast. cuz like yesterday it was fine. not one prob. all fluids were good. gauges good. then on way home i noticed the oil level seemed lil low. and i heard a sound. i stopped checke oil. added a little bit of oil. then about 2 miles down the road it happend.

lol if i could get a GTE for a decent price your damn right i would. but would all the stock supra parts handle the added power? also i gotta wait to find out what the previous owner wants to do. cuz im making payments to him on it and i didnt even drive it hard or anything and im seeing if he is gunna be a dick or not. now i gotta drive my parents CRX to work. ARGH.

o and yeah i got a place to do work on my car. i got friends lol.
